Brahmas are most often referred to as the largest of the chicken breeds.
The Brahma are very large docile birds who make reliable brooders because they can cover a large number of eggs due to their size.
The Brahma is often referred to as the "King of Chicken Breeds" at poultry shows and Auctions. The Jersey Giant developed in the USA is reported to be larger.

Silver Sussex are nice (as a UK poultry show judge I awarded a Silver Sussex Bantam male Best in Show @ Surrey Agricultural Show a couple of years ago), but don't usually cost that much.
Probably the most expensive breeds on a regularly changing hands for mega-bucks basis are from Japan: Onagadori (amazing long tailed breed) and Yamato Gunkei ("so ugly, they're beautiful")
Google both breed names, look at the photos, and be amazed. Enjoy.
